Greetings,
If you are interested in becoming an NRA Pistol Instructor, contact me through the form below. I can qualify you for this as I am a certified NRA Training Counselor who trains instructors. After you qualify, you can then teach others and award completion certificates that the State requires for concealed carry permits. See below.
1. NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting Course - includes use of gun, ammo, completion certificate for concealed carry permit = $125; if we use your gun and ammo, $115.
This is the entire NRA Basic Pistol course that meets the State of Virginia requirements for a concealed carry permit. Range fees (minimal) are extra. I guarantee you this: if you apply what you are taught, you WILL shoot safely and accurately.
NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting INSTRUCTOR course - the prerequisite for this course is the Basic Pistol course above. An instructor teaches people who usually want to get their concealed carry permit. You are paid by the students you teach. The course requires 16 hours of class time as well as demonstrating shooting proficiency by putting 16 of 20 shots into a 6 inch circle at 45 feet. Price varies but usually between $300-350. Contact me if interested.
If you are interested in taking either of these courses right away, contact me through the form below for more information. I will be happy to work with your schedule, rather than scheduling classes and you have to change your schedule. No problem with me to schedule what is best for you.
If you wish to verify my credentials, email me and I will send you my NRA ID# and you can see the result here: https://www.nrainstructors.org/InstructorAdmin/verify.aspx
*Please note: I am a shooting instructor - I don't sell guns nor do I have a shooting range.
I am John Sargent, here with my wife Betsy, and I am a retired lieutenant colonel, US Marine Corps. During many years of service in the Marines, I received some of the finest firearms training in the world. As an infantry officer, our rifles and pistols were how we "did business", meaning that mastery of them was necessary for success in combat.
In fact, every Marine is required to go to the range every year for two weeks for weapons training with the service rifle and pistol. The instructors there are some of the best there are, and I would like to offer my training and experience to you.
Many people buy guns thinking that there is nothing more needed than to load it and shoot it.
Question: would you go to a building supply store, buy a hammer and saw and suddenly think that you are a carpenter?
Would you buy a piano and suddenly know how to play it with no training?
Would you buy a paintbrush and canvas and suddenly think that you are Michelangelo or some famous artist?
Would you buy a wrench and suddenly think that you are an auto mechanic?
You know what the obvious answer is to all of these questions.
If you are interested in learning how to SAFELY and PROPERLY handle your firearm, shoot accurately, clean and care for it, and/or prepare for the Carry Concealed Weapon license in Virginia, then please contact me by filling out the form below.
NOTE: THIS IS NOT A VIDEO ONLY COURSE! THERE ARE NORMALLY NOT MORE THAN 7 STUDENTS, AND YOU WILL HAVE OPPORTUNITY TO ASK QUESTIONS AND CONCERNS. IT IS FACE TO FACE, PERSONAL AND THOROUGH. IF YOU ARE GOING TO CARRY A GUN, I MUST BE SURE THAT YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING, AND THE COURSE IS DESIGNED TO THAT END. IF YOU WANT A CHEAP VIDEO COURSE, FINE, BUT IF YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN THAT TRAINING TO A JURY, DO NOT EXPECT THEM TO BE SYMPATHETIC TO YOU.

If you do not have legal protection from lawsuits involving guns, I encourage you to consider US LawShield.com. The thing I like most about this is that there are NO LIMITS on attorney fees when they protect you. Worth it!
